DETAILS

Onderhoudsinstructies
Peperomia obtusifolia thrives in bright, indirect light but can tolerate medium light conditions. It prefers moderate temperatures and average humidity levels. Water the plant when the top inch of soil feels dry, and avoid overwatering to prevent root rot. This plant is relatively low-maintenance and is well-suited for indoor growth.
Bodem
Peperomia obtusifolia prefers a well-draining soil mix, such as a combination of loam and perlite or sand. The soil should retain some moisture but not become waterlogged. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot.
Kunstmest
Fertilize Peperomia obtusifolia with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer (10-10-10) every 4-6 weeks during the growing season. Reduce feeding during the winter months when the plant's growth slows down.
Verpotten
Repot Peperomia obtusifolia every 2-3 years or when it becomes root-bound. Choose a pot that is one size larger than the current one and ensure it has drainage holes. Gently remove the plant from its old pot, shake off excess soil, and place it in the new pot with fresh soil mix.
Voortplanting
Peperomia obtusifolia can be propagated through stem or leaf cuttings. Take cuttings in the spring or early summer, and allow them to callous over for a day before planting them in a well-draining soil mix. Keep the soil slightly moist and provide bright, indirect light until new growth appears.
Snoeien
Prune Peperomia obtusifolia to maintain its shape and encourage bushier growth. Remove any dead or yellowing leaves and trim back leggy stems. Pruning can be done throughout the year as needed.
Toxiciteit
Peperomia obtusifolia is non-toxic to pets and humans, making it a safe choice for households with animals and children.
